Using the Admin Edit Screens

Since Contensive treats all content the same, there is only one editing process. Once you know how to edit "records", you can edit anything associated with the site, this includes editing user profiles, page content, rss feeds, etc.

There are two primary screens you use to edit any content, the record listing Screen and the Edit Screen.

The Listing Screen

The Listing Screen displays several selected fields (columns) from up to 50 records (rows). The purpose of the listing screen is to help you locate the record(s) you wish to view or modify. This is a list of the basic features of the listing page.

• User selectable rows
• Sorting by any row
  
• A simple Find feature to search all records for matches
• A filter to help you isolate groups of records
• An advanced search feature to find specific criteria of a group of records.
• An edit icon for each record.
  

When you locate the record you want to edit, click the edit icon to start the Edit Screen.

The Edit Screen

You can get to the edit screen by clicking an edit icon on the Listing Screen, or any other place on the site. The edit screen lets you manage any editable field in the record. The record is divided into tabs to separate the different functional elements of the record.

For instance, when editing a Page Content record, fields related to how the record appears in menus are in teh "Menuing" tab.

Buttons at the top and bottom of the page are used to save the changes. In Workflow Authoring there are buttons to submit, approve, abort and publish changes. In Immediate Authoring, the buttons are to save and cancel changes.

When you hit the cancel or OK button, you are returned to the page where you hit the edit icon.
